Just north of Nederland, Gordon Gulch allows for primitive camping, hiking with spectacular views, and a getaway from the more populated state and national parks of the Front Range. Camping is permitted in designated sites only and, because there are limited sites, they can fill up quickly, particularly on holiday weekends. This is a heavily wooded area and campfires are permitted as are dogs. However, bear, mountain lions, moose, and elk frequent this area, so be sure to keep an eye on your pet at all times. Be sure to take precautions with food by putting it in either a bear-proof cooler or storing it in your car overnight.

- Best for Campgrounds Because: Gordon Gulch is the perfect spot for those who want to get away from it all and prefer a more isolated camping experience.
